Lost & Found

The Department of Public Safety is the central repository for items lost and found on campus. Our system allows you to report a lost item and review the inventory of found items to help facilitate recovery of your belongings.

If you find a lost item in an NYU facility, please turn the item in to a uniformed NYU Public Safety officer or bring the item directly to our command center at 7 Washington Place.
